Sporomusaovata是一种细菌,可以接受来自阴极的电子以驱动二氧化碳中乙酸盐的微生物电合成(MES)。它是所描述的具有最高乙酸盐生产率的生物催化剂。在这里,我们回顾了不同学科对S.ovata的研究,包括微生物学,生物化学,工程,和材料科学,总结和评估最先进的技术。在过去的10年中,S.ovata的生物催化能力得到了提高,使用不同的优化策略进行了描述和讨论。此外,我们从文献中描述的遗传和实验数据中提出了可能的电子吸收途径,并指出了通过基因工程理解和改善S.ovata性能的可能性。最后,我们确定了当前的知识空白,指导进一步的研究工作,以探索MES领域的这种有前途的生物。
Sporomusa ovata is a bacterium that can accept electrons from cathodes to drive microbial electrosynthesis (MES) of acetate from carbon dioxide. It is the biocatalyst with the highest acetate production rate described. Here we
review the research on S. ovata across different disciplines, including microbiology, biochemistry, engineering, and materials science, to summarize and assess the state-of-the-art. The improvement of the biocatalytic capacity of S. ovata in the last 10 years, using different optimization strategies is described and discussed. In addition, we propose possible electron uptake routes derived from genetic and experimental data described in the literature and point out the possibilities to understand and improve the performance of S. ovata through genetic engineering. Finally, we identify current knowledge gaps guiding further research efforts to explore this promising organism for the MES field.
